Senator Lenin is Bolshevik as usual and a Rockefeller is often in the woodwork when evil is afoot.

Perfect timing....DUmocrats exposing themselves just before an election.

These "facts" the DUmocrats spew are easily disputable. They will be proven to be the foolish frauds that they are. Not likely to keep their mind-numbed minions from voting for them though.

Fox just shown a clip of Rockefeller saying that Iraq was an IMMINENT THREAT, and was close to getting a Nuclear Bomb. rocky said we cannot take a chance even if the intel is wrong... it is far too grave a risk for America.

dims will go nowhere with these lies. Man, we have them on tape in their own words stating things that they accuse the President of saying, but which the President did NOT say... but dims did. It's over; they just do not know it yet!

I agree. Who are the republican senators who allowed this report to emerge without drawing attention to the fallacies contained therein. I hope someone smart in the WH has the equivalent of a Neutron Bomb to drop, one that indisputably ties the al Qaeda and Iraq pieces together.

"Saddam told U.S. officials after his capture that he had not cooperated with Osama bin Laden even though he acknowledged that officials in his government had met with the al-Qaida leader, according to FBI summaries cited in the Senate report."


From a previous article from AP. AP pulled the paragraph.

Thank you, thank you! It's so galling to hear the MSM coming out with this spew, when we know they're completely off track.

The Drive-By Media has gone into full Clinton/Goebbels Template- don't even bother to spin, just lie like a cheap rug, and enough of the fools who read only headlines and hear only soundbites will believe it to matter.

Thanks, bumped and bookmarked (but it's a travesty you have to title your thread a "vanity").

" This reports was never really about investigating the relationship between Saddam's regime and al Qaeda.

It was about giving certain senators more ammunition against the president."

I always believed the much vaunted 9\11 Commission was coincidently convened prior to the 04 elections for exactly the same reason.It was a dog and pony show that cost taxpayers a ton of money to tell us absolutly nothing we didn't already know.The comrades in American politics aka Democraps will pull any trick in the book to gain political advantage !!!

God bless the Weekly Standard, but this rebuttal is weak.

Can't they cite better examples than this? There must be lots of evidence of the connection. Most of this is tenuous and suggests that at best Saddam was considering a relationship with AQ - especially after he knew Iraq was next on the target list and had nothing left to lose.
